Serenji

Serenji from George James Software (GJS) is an extension for Visual Studio Code (VSCode), allowing you to browse, edit and debug InterSystems ObjectScript code directly in namespaces of InterSystems environments.

Serenji includes an embedded edition of the Deltanji source code management product from GJS. A separate VSCode extension integrates Deltanji with VSCode as a source control provider that you can interact with from the Source Control viewlet. Contact GJS for more information about that extension. You can also access Serenji's embedded Deltanji through its web browser UI.

Features

Since its debut in 1999 Serenji has built a strong reputation as a code editor and debugger for developers working on the InterSystems platforms. Now Serenji has been re-engineered as a Visual Studio Code extension to provide state-of-the-art browsing, editing and debugging of InterSystems IRIS, Ensemble, Caché and HealthShare source code from Linux, macOS and Windows workstations.

With Serenji you can:

  • Browse the contents of namespaces on your InterSystems servers. Explore classes, MAC, INT and INC routines, and web application textfiles (CSP, CSR, js, css etc.).
  • Edit classes, routines and web application textfiles directly on the servers without having to export them to your workstation.
  • Debug classes and routines by invoking them directly, or debug any kind of running process by attaching to it.
  • Set breakpoints and watchpoints.
  • Execute code one command at a time, stepping in, out or over each statement.
  • View variables at each stack level.
  • Use a variety of source control tools seamlessly, including Deltanji. The free Solo edition of Deltanji is bundled with Serenji.

Known Issues

  • Datatipping is primitive (#33)
  • WRITE commands are not handled well during debugging (#35)
  • Non-Deltanji server-side source control providers are not respected (#39)
  • Deltanji comment lines written by save do not result in a document reload (#66)
